Bolivian President Luis Arce faced down a coup attempt on Wednesday (26 June), which saw heavily armed troops fill the main plaza in La Paz and an armoured vehicle breach the government palace before withdrawing.
Bolivian authorities arrested rebel military leader in charge General Juan Jose Zuniga and Reuters has reported that the public prosecutor’s office will launch a criminal investigation against him and other participants for the attempted coup. News agency AP further reported that Arce had also ordered the arrest of Navy Vice Admiral Juan Arnez Salvador.
